Tears for Tomorrow

I tried to keep my head above the water
I tried to be the perfect daughter
I fell victim to the slaughter
Shed my wings, pushed away my father

I was always afraid of the dark
Never one to embrace it with open arms
As I grew older, my heart grew colder
I had a chip on my shoulder
I'm slowly fading away
I need to shed my tears today

I've been procrastinating my sorrow
And saving my tears for tomorrow
I'd rather live in a fantasy
Then believe this reality
I've been procrastinating my sorrow
And saving my tears for tomorrow
Is there hope for me

Am I lost beyond redemption
It's just like me to give into temptation
Stuck in memories, running from contentment
Begged for mercy, found resentment

I was always afraid of the dark
Never one to embrace it with open arms
As I grew older, my heart grew colder
I had a chip on my shoulder
I'm slowly fading away
I need to shed my tears today

I've been procrastinating my sorrow
And saving my tears for tomorrow
I'd rather live in a fantasy
Then believe this reality
I've been procrastinating my sorrow
And saving my tears for tomorrow
Is there hope for me

I've been procrastinating my sorrow
And saving my tears for tomorrow
I'd rather live in a fantasy
Then believe this reality
I've been procrastinating my sorrow
And saving my tears for tomorrow
Is there hope for me

Maybe one day I'll reclaim what was mine
Maybe one day I won't undermine
The importance of my emotions
The reasons why I survive
